Beautiful 1911A1, makes me jealous. I started steel plate matches with a 1943 Ithaca from 1943. I couldn't hit a barn if I was inside the barn. Spent $1200 for a barely used Springfield Armory (new one) with adjustable sights, tuned trigger and a few other goodies. They sure as heck don't make pistols like that anymore.
 
Drake slide on what frame? Any idea of who built it?

Colt frame built by S/A

Drake Slide National Match - Drake made slides
only for use by the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit to
allow assembly of match guns. The 1964 National
Match pistols are unique as it was the only year the
armory used Drake slides which are specially
machined and hardened. According to Springfield
Armory records only 800 pistols were produced in
1964 (Considered to be one of the rarest and most
desired variations) and only 195 sold to civilians
through the DCM.
